Add CI latency reports and an optional p95 regression guard - #571
The existing benchmark prints query timings locally. This change adds a GitHub
Actions workflow and a JSON report for the same fixed 100,000-document workload.
The runner builds a fresh local Moss index and records p50, p95, and p99 with
the commit and input details. It measures the installed SDK release.
The live job runs on trusted main runs when enabled. A reviewed p95 baseline
can turn a slowdown into a failing job. A separately captured reference can
report agreement between Moss and Pinecone, Qdrant, and Chroma on the same
text. Each engine handles its own embeddings. Low agreement is report-only.
This first stage covers the benchmark runner and reporting. Live Ubuntu execution,
latency calibration, a real competitor reference, and durable results storage
are open. The baseline and competitor checks
are opt-in. A calibrated baseline and a real reference are needed to activate
them. The current workflow retains result artifacts for 90 days.
The initial latency plan expanded to include the optional guard and agreement
report after I inspected the unlabeled corpus. A label source for relevance
recall is still open. Would competitor agreement be useful as an interim
quality signal for this workload?
Environment loading moves from import time into the legacy benchmark entry
points. The existing commands load their environment when invoked, while the
CI runner can import their shared functions without discovering a local
credentials file.
Validation
Before at 2e638ec, a search of .github/workflows found no call to the
benchmark.
The local runner completed a fresh 100,000-document build and 750 measured
searches on a Mac. The p50, p95, and p99 were 13.608, 32.357, and 75.283 ms.
These measurements came from the first latency stage and are local evidence.
At 64494cb, all 24 offline tests passed. They cover a p95 regression that
fails and keeps its report, and low competitor agreement that leaves the run
successful. Ruff, Python compilation, actionlint, and the whitespace check
passed.
Review caught an output path that could overwrite credentials or the corpus.
The runner now rejects those paths, and the regression test verifies both
inputs survive the rejected command.
Chroma and Qdrant returned five real results for all 15 queries on a local
sample. A full three-engine capture requires a configured Pinecone index.

I used Codex to trace the existing benchmark, implement the runner and checks,
and help validate the results. I chose to keep the full corpus, leave generated
indexes out of Git, and compare the engines on the same text. I also used
Claude Code’s plan-check on the initial latency plan.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added a benchmark workflow that runs checks on pushes and pull requests and can also be started manually. Live measurements run only under configured conditions, with results saved as an artifact.
Benchmark reports can include optional latency checks and comparisons with saved competitor rankings.
Added local benchmark runs using a fixed dataset, with result validation and repository and runtime details included in reports.
Documentation
Expanded benchmark guidance with setup, report details, workflow configuration, optional checks, and offline validation instructions.
Tests
Added offline tests for benchmark measurement, configuration, result reporting, and validation.
This pull request adds fixed-corpus local benchmarking, result validation, and benchmark reporting. It adds optional p95 latency checks and competitor-ranking agreement. GitHub Actions runs offline tests and conditionally runs live measurements.
Changes: Local benchmark and CI
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Corpus validation and local measurements benchmarks/corpus.py, benchmarks/bench_moss.py, benchmarks/local_moss.py, benchmarks/tests/test_local_moss.py, benchmarks/README.md
The benchmark validates fixed-corpus records and measures query latency and result IDs. The local runner indexes documents in batches before querying. Tests cover corpus validation, measurement behavior, and local indexing.
Result records and latency checks benchmarks/latency_guard.py, benchmarks/run_ci.py, benchmarks/tests/test_run_ci.py, benchmarks/README.md
The CI runner validates measurements, captures provenance, redacts secrets, and writes result records. An optional baseline check reports compatibility and p95 regression status.
The capture script records rankings from Pinecone, Chroma, and Qdrant. Reference validation and scoring compare Moss rankings with consensus templates. The CI runner can record agreement results.
GitHub Actions workflow and setup .github/workflows/benchmark.yml, .gitignore, benchmarks/requirements-ci.txt, benchmarks/README.md
The workflow runs credential-free tests and conditionally runs live measurements on main. It uploads result artifacts, and the documentation describes workflow setup and offline checks.

Explanation
The title "Add CI latency reports and an optional p95 regression guard" matches the main change. The PR adds a GitHub Actions benchmark workflow that writes a JSON latency report, and it adds an opt-in p95 baseline check that can fail the job on a slowdown. The title is specific, concise, and free of file lists or vague terms. It does not mention the competitor-agreement report or the local fixed-corpus index, but the title does not need to cover every detail.

Pin the benchmark workflow actions to full commit SHAs.
The measure job runs actions/checkout@v4 and actions/setup-python@v5 before the step that passes MOSS_PROJECT_KEY to benchmarks/run_ci.py. A retargeted or compromised action tag could alter workspace code before that step runs. Pin each uses: reference to a full commit SHA, with the version in a comment.
Pinning approach
Replace each mutable reference with a full commit SHA. Resolve the SHA from the release tag and verify it in the upstream repository. Apply the same change to the other secret-bearing workflows, such as publish-vapi-moss.yml, so the repository follows one pinning policy.

The offline suite never reads the default corpus file. The existing checksum test patches both FIXED_CORPUS_PATH and FIXED_CORPUS_SHA256. If bench_100k_docs.json or the constant changes without the other, offline CI still passes. The live runner then raises Fixed benchmark corpus checksum mismatch at load_fixed_documents() in benchmarks/run_ci.py.

Retry the Pinecone namespace deletion before raising.
After uploads, a failed delete_namespace call in pinecone_rankings leaves the temporary benchmark-<uuid> namespace with its records. No other step removes it, although the README says the collector cleans it up on exit. Retry the deletion a bounded number of times before raising.

The collector rejected valid Pinecone indexes when the model supplied its default metric. Commit a5b9f97 fixes that check and the other validated review findings.
The collector now accepts an omitted metric for the documented cosine defaults of llama-text-embed-v2 and multilingual-e5-large. Unknown defaults and explicit noncosine metrics still fail validation. Model defaults
The latency comparison rejects a boolean such as alpha: true against a numeric alpha: 1, while accepting equivalent JSON numbers such as 1 and 1.0.
An offline test now loads the actual checked-in corpus and verifies the pinned count and checksum.
The README now describes quality.recall as null, gives the runnable command from the repository root, and distinguishes argument errors from runtime failures that write a report when the output can be written.
.venv/bin/python -m unittest discover -s benchmarks/tests -v passed all 28 tests locally. Benchmark compilation and repository lint also passed.
For namespace cleanup, Pinecone 10.x already applies bounded REST retries to DELETE, with up to three retries after the initial request. The collector reports exhausted cleanup failures with the temporary namespace name. I kept that retry policy. I have not exercised cleanup against a live Pinecone account. SDK retry policy
The action SHA recommendation is useful hardening. The current workflow follows the repository's existing version-tag convention, and its contribution rules do not require SHA pins. I am leaving a broader workflow policy change for maintainer direction.
Add a test that runs a non-cosine index through pinecone_text_field.
The new tests call validate_pinecone_metric directly. No test calls pinecone_text_field, so removing its call to the validator would not fail any offline test. Add a case that builds a ready SemanticTextField with metric="dotproduct" and asserts that pinecone_text_field raises CaptureError.
